| Oh, what a host of playmates has little Johnny Grey! |
| He says that Puss and Rover know everything we say; |
| And that the birds and squirrels always understand; |
| So he's talking to the beetle that is crawling on his hand. |
| Mamma must work the long, long day, |
| While I have lessons to learn and say; |
| But Baby Blue Eyes, so bright and gay, |
| Has nothing to do but laugh and play, |
| Till the Sand Man works his wonderful charms, |
| When he goes to sleep in somebody's arms. |
